How Do I Make Garlic, Prawn and Tomato Pasta?

Here is how you make Garlic, Prawn and Tomato Pasta:

Heat a large, heavy-bottomed skillet or pot over a medium-low heat.Add olive oil and allow it to warm a littleAdd sliced onions and garlic, and cook slowly until they are golden and caramelised (you will need to keep checking and moving them around in the pan to ensure even caramelisation - approx half an hour or more)Add tomatoes, stock, bay leaves and chilli. Stir, and put lid on. Allow to cook down slowly, until the tomatoes have collapsed, and the mixture is thick (not soupy). Add some more stock if you need to - the main thing is that the tomatoes have to cook long enough to get lovely and thick.Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to packet directions. Thin spaghetti or linguine is very nice with this. When tomato mixture is thick and lovely, add the prawns. Cook until the prawns are cooked but still firm, or to your liking. Taste for seasoning and add as required. Remove from the heat, and stir through chopped parsley.To finish, place the cooked pasta into the skillet with the sauce, and gently toss until coated.Serve into individual bowls topped with 2 tblsp finely grated parmesan, and a lovely big green salad. (A dressing that includes lemon juice is a good compliment.)Serving Size: Makes 6 pasta bowl serves (approx 2 cups each)Number of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user CONSCIOUSHEALTH.
